Koalas have little to no effect on the plants in their environment. They eat eucalyptus leaves and blossoms, but this action does nothing to help disperse the seeds. At most, their claws scratch the bark of the trees they climb, but this does not affect the plant for good or for bad.

What plants are grown in koala habitats?

The plants which grow in a koala's habitat must be predominantly eucalyptus trees. Koalas will not eat all types of eucalyptus, feeding on just 14 species as their primary food source, specifically, the subgenus Symphyomyrphus.Besides eucalyptus trees, there tend to be callistemon (bottle brush), melaleuca and wattle trees within the koala's habitat. Lower-growing plants include the banksia, leptospermum (tea-tree) and even grass trees (blackboys).


What happens when a change occurs in an ecosystem?

The koala's habitat is decreasing dramatically, and with it, the population of the koala itself is also decreasing. Koala habitats are decreasing primarily because of increased urbanisation and housing developments. In the past, farming and agriculture destroyed many areas of koala habitation, but in recent times it is urban sprawl which creates the greatest threat. Also, introduced predators have encroached upon the koala's habitat. Foxes and dogs are a major threat to koalas in their native habitat.
